Thank you for this. Got accepted for boot camp and this week I started prepping and learning however I was learning Java now I’m going to start over and learn Python
hi, can you share in detail as to what to expect there? i just got accepted for bootcamp and i really have no clue as to what to expect when i get there...
I love😍 how you did the mental preparation prior the bootcamp. We would love a video on where you focus on how you keep up with your mental health even if it's not related to software development.
I love the mental work that you do, I also design and apply into my life a lot of meditations and mantras/affirmations. People do not understand that success begins with the state of mind you create for it.
I am so glad you relate to & appreciate this. As a person who has been smart all my life but has not always seen results match that, i know that my power is in my thought power and wholistic wellness
I've watched so many of these videos before going to the 6 day selection and none of them mentioned how hard it is there, you need to go there already knowing how to code. We deal with python there but knowing any other language is a bonus. The people working there help when you ask but otherwise you're on your own. They don't teach you how to code.
Hey guys, hope you enjoy this video & find it helpful. Happy to answer your questions (as much as I can & I am permitted to) , also feel free to DM me on insta...
Hey Zizi Africa, your videos are really helpful in preparing for the bootcamp. What I'm curious about is the knock on and knock off time for the bootcampers, for those 6 days. Can you please share with us coz I'm worried that I will be traveling from one city to another daily for 6 days
Hey Brightonicx…I think you select your track when choosing bootcamp. In my case, I selected the Hedy track by selecting the no python experience option when booking bootcamp. It might be different this year? Please email the team/dm WTC on one of their social pages to be sure
Thank you for sharing this valuable information. I really like the background music. May you please share the name and artist of the song so that I can listen to it whiles I code.
Hii Zizi thank you for the info...when do they require for the ID is it during the online application or during the boot camp because Im having issues with my ID that I need to fix at the home affairs which might take time
im currently in highschool doing grade 12 and I want to attend the bookcamp next year. when should i apply if i want to make it into next year's class?
Hi Zizi Thank you so much for this content. Please may I ask. Is phyton the language use at wethink code? I want to follow through and start learning but afraid I get there and boom its c# 😂 I'm starting my bootcamp on 1 August
Hi Zizi, thanks for the videos, they are really informative and encouraging, I am also accepted for the 6 days bootcamp and after watching your videos I'm now confident. If I may ask, what would advice on someone who is already working and their worry is how are they going to cover their debts and commitments if they succeed into getting the 2 or 1 bootcamp at wethinkcode, is advisable for to rather settle their debts before enrolling or is there maybe a stipend they will get for duration while enrolled in the institution?
Hey Lindi, I waited a few weeks to get my results for the online test but I know the results are almost instant now. I had a while between the test and bootcamp. More that two months for sure
Hey Karl, no worries. Our Cohort had more than 300 students. I do not have any information on how many students WeThinkCode_ will be taking in the 2022 Cohort, but we are growing so I do not expect that the number this year will be significantly less.
Very good video! I think you hit all the points on preparation for the bootcamp and I think everyone should use them! The reading part is TRUE! READ READ READ!
Hey Nostalgia Zee, WeThinkCode does not provide/pay for Accomodation. Accomodation is generally pricey in CT so please prepare yourself for that 😢🤗 Search for places in the Southern Suburbs (especially Woodstock, Cape Town CBD, Observatory & Salt River - they are closest to campus) if your budget is relaxed and proximity to campus is more of a priority. If your budget is tight , check out the Northern Surburbs but you have to accept that you will be far from campus. For a sense of how much places cost, search on property 24/gumtree (with caution) This is a tricky one. All the best ❤️
Hey Thato, I don’t remember exactly but it was a few weeks…I remember it felt like forever (although objectively it was not)💀😂. You will probably need to be patient as they have to get through a large number of applicants.
Thank you for this vid. It really helps to have an idea of how one should plan for the bootcamp! It's really calmed me down about getting ready for it. PS: I think you have an amazing name!
Hey Nonhlanhla. I wish I could teach the concept to you. But I can (practically) only reccomend that you find RUclips videos or links to read that can help you understand this. Start with really simple form and then progress to more complex form. Check out Mosh Hamedanis videos, he has a way of simplifying concepts really well for beginners. Also would suggest that you start by understanding why & when we need loops in the first place (mostly to repeat instructions till a certain condition is met). Then what their structure and building blocks are - some building blocks are the key words "while" or "for", "else" "break"; the condition upon which repetition will continue or stop; the code block that must be executed until the condition is met etc. Then bring it all together by applying to solving a simple problem at first and then more complex as you go. Hope this helps a little and all the best
Teaching is my passion. If I could carve out the time to dedicate to this you probably wouldnt even need to pay me :). Hopefully I get to do this in future.
🙌🏼u insider information really cemented my understanding of the boot camp 🏕 process I really appreciate that u took the time to make such series u have my deepest thanks 🙏🏽
I just got invited to a bootcamp few weeks from now and that Mosh Hamedani video reference you mentioned may have saved me there, thank you so much for this 🤞🫂

Is visual studio code good for practising while watching RUclips tutorials coz I only know visual studio code not pycharm??
I have been invited for bootcamp and am terrified yho😰. This was very informative Thank you.
Hey Thembi, we've all been there, you will be absolutely fine. Just focus on prep & over time you will feel more confident. All the best! :)
I'm currently prepping 🔥
That’s good. All the best in really rooting for you. Also checkout Hackerrank 😉
Thank you very informative 🤓🤗
Thank you for watching Tumi 🌻
I've been selected for a bootcamp that will take place on 25 July 2022 I literally know nothing about what should I expect to the boot camp
I'm also starting on the 25th
Did you get a job after completion of the 2021 class
Hey Zizi , thanks for such an amazing tips for the bootcamp ,may I please have the video of the python tutorials you watched prior to Bootcamp...
Thank you Zizi 😊 I'm starting my bootcamp on the 10th of August I hope everything will be fine 😢 even though I'm scared
Hi i'm starting mine too on the 10th which campts are you?
Are you starting your bootcamp virtually
Hi zizi, I have coded before but I don't have experience in python, will I be given an option to choose Hedy track at the bootcamp.
Hey Brightonicx…I think you select your track when choosing bootcamp. In my case, I selected the Hedy track by selecting the no python experience option when booking bootcamp. It might be different this year? Please email the team/dm WTC on one of their social pages to be sure
So isit possibly for me to apply using a mobile phone or it only needs me to use laptop computer
Thank you so much for the great video, do you have any Idea when they are going to open for 2023?
Thank you so much
😄🤗
Thank you for sharing this valuable information. I really like the background music. May you please share the name and artist of the song so that I can listen to it whiles I code.
Sounds good 😋 Zizi
Well said thankyou zizi Africa
Hii Zizi thank you for the info...when do they require for the ID is it during the online application or during the boot camp because Im having issues with my ID that I need to fix at the home affairs which might take time
Thanks for this❤ how long did it take in-between the boot camp and the interview to then starting classes
Hey Asanda, ❤️ I think I had 3-4 weeks between the bootcamp and interview. I had my bootcamp in March 2021 and started the on 1 Sept 2021.
Helpful ❤️
Glad 😃🤗
im currently in highschool doing grade 12 and I want to attend the bookcamp next year. when should i apply if i want to make it into next year's class?
Keep an eye on the WeThinkCode_ website so you know when applications open ( usually around) Sept/Oct 2022. All the best!
Thanks for sharing your experiences with WeThinkCode, it's really helpful. Which IDE are they using for Java when you get to OOP?
Hey Collin, glad you found this helpful.
We use IntelliJ IDEA as the IDE for Java/OOP
@@ziziafrica4265 Thank you very much
Hi thank you for sharing. What are the employment opportunities after the bootcamp?
The last day of the bootcamp/ the exam was it done on hackerank???
It can be hackerank or any other platform that WeThinkCode_ chooses to use to conduct the exam.
Hi Zizi
Thank you so much for this content.
Please may I ask. Is phyton the language use at wethink code? I want to follow through and start learning but afraid I get there and boom its c# 😂 I'm starting my bootcamp on 1 August
Hey, yes in bootcamp and 1st year we use Python.
Thank you zizi but do we have to sleep at the campus during the bookcamp ?
No. You come in daily as you would show up for work.
Hi Zizi, how are the interviews? Are theys hectic?
Interviews focus on getting to know you as a person and establishing whether you are a good cultural fit for WeThinkCode_. Just be yourself.
Hi Zizi, thanks for the videos, they are really informative and encouraging, I am also accepted for the 6 days bootcamp and after watching your videos I'm now confident.
If I may ask, what would advice on someone who is already working and their worry is how are they going to cover their debts and commitments if they succeed into getting the 2 or 1 bootcamp at wethinkcode, is advisable for to rather settle their debts before enrolling or is there maybe a stipend they will get for duration while enrolled in the institution?
There is a stipend you can apply for up to a maximum of R2800.
Hii, did you guys cover object oriented programming in the bootcamp?
@fulufhelo matanga okay thanks.
Hey Bra Kop, no we covered Python basics
Hi Zizi, how long after you completed the online assessment did you get invited to the 6 day bootcamp?
Hey Lindi, I waited a few weeks to get my results for the online test but I know the results are almost instant now.
I had a while between the test and bootcamp. More that two months for sure
Hi Zizi, thanks for this video, please do you have a rough estimate of how many students get accepted into cohort
Hey Karl, no worries. Our Cohort had more than 300 students. I do not have any information on how many students WeThinkCode_ will be taking in the 2022 Cohort, but we are growing so I do not expect that the number this year will be significantly less.
@@ziziafrica4265 Hi, I am also booked for the bootcamp and I would love if you can post the link you talking about. Thank you in advance ☺ 😘
Yoh zizi I really want to be enrolled in this school and I am scared of being rejected 😢.expecially since the is slot of people applying
Very good video! I think you hit all the points on preparation for the bootcamp and I think everyone should use them! The reading part is TRUE! READ READ READ!
Thanks bud😄🙏🏾
Hello Zizi.
I would like to know about accommodation. What can I do as I stay in another province?
Hey Nostalgia Zee,
WeThinkCode does not provide/pay for Accomodation. Accomodation is generally pricey in CT so please prepare yourself for that 😢🤗
Search for places in the Southern Suburbs (especially Woodstock, Cape Town CBD, Observatory & Salt River - they are closest to campus) if your budget is relaxed and proximity to campus is more of a priority.
If your budget is tight , check out the Northern Surburbs but you have to accept that you will be far from campus.
For a sense of how much places cost, search on property 24/gumtree (with caution)
This is a tricky one. All the best ❤️
Were you still working while you did the 'we think code' program.? And did you have any background on coding when you joined?
Hey Siyethaba. I had no background in programming before WeThinkCode_. I started learning to code while preparing for bootcamp
Can someone who has been at WTC list ALL the languages you learn at WTC
Okay girrrl😍🔥
Yes girlie, 2022 si on😂😜❤️
Hi Zizi, after bootcamp,how long did it for you to get your interview invite?
Hey Thato, I don’t remember exactly but it was a few weeks…I remember it felt like forever (although objectively it was not)💀😂. You will probably need to be patient as they have to get through a large number of applicants.
Thank you for this vid. It really helps to have an idea of how one should plan for the bootcamp! It's really calmed me down about getting ready for it.
PS: I think you have an amazing name!
So happy to hear this. All the best Thabo!
When will Johannesburg boot camp be open?
I’m in the CT campus, not sure about JHB sorry. Maybe inbox WTC on Instagram/Facebook or Twitter?
great t-shirt. do you get one once you're a student there?
Thanks! We get free merch from WeThinkCode_ sometimes :)
Kunini ndiyilindile. Thank you!
Thanks for being so patient :). All the best.
Hi please help me with loops
Hey Nonhlanhla. I wish I could teach the concept to you. But I can (practically) only reccomend that you find RUclips videos or links to read that can help you understand this. Start with really simple form and then progress to more complex form. Check out Mosh Hamedanis videos, he has a way of simplifying concepts really well for beginners.
Also would suggest that you start by understanding why & when we need loops in the first place (mostly to repeat instructions till a certain condition is met).
Then what their structure and building blocks are - some building blocks are the key words "while" or "for", "else" "break"; the condition upon which repetition will continue or stop; the code block that must be executed until the condition is met etc.
Then bring it all together by applying to solving a simple problem at first and then more complex as you go.
Hope this helps a little and all the best
@@ziziafrica4265 Thanks zizi I'll try that
can you teach me I'll pay you❤
Teaching is my passion. If I could carve out the time to dedicate to this you probably wouldnt even need to pay me :). Hopefully I get to do this in future.
